Star attorney will defend Adrian Peterson in child-abuse case

Minnesota VikingAdrian Peterson’s Texas attorney is as much an MVP in the courtroom as the running back is on a football field.
In his taupe and gray suits paired with sherbet-colored ties, the mop-topped 73-year-old Rusty Hardin stands out in a crowded courtroom even before he begins speaking in his soothing North Carolina drawl. He’s got a down-home nickname, an easy smile and the demeanor of a friendly Southern gentleman. For his trial opponents, he’s a legal assassin in the guise of an avuncular everyman.
